I mean if you want to get into PA school, that's a whole different game than heading into nursing...or pharmacy. Of course none of your target goals is the ideal end for a degree through any of the big 3 and distance learning (not saying it can't be done- it's just harder than what most members here are doing- which is checking the box). If you had to pick one path as the one you're MOST passionate about, which one would it be?

Once I started I realized how much harder and more time consuming the chemistry would be. I ended up going for the TESC natural science/ Mathematics BA. The degree did open some doors, but I was in my late 50's so ageism closed a lot of those doors. If you just want some kind of science degree this might be the quickest. Are your previous credits from a CC or 4 year school? If 4 year TESC may give some UL credits.
